In apphcation to electric utihty power generation, MHD is combined with steam (qv) power generation, as shown in Figure 2. The MHD generator is used as a topping unit to the steam bottoming plant. From a thermodynamic point of view, the system is a combined cycle. The MHD generator operates in a Brayton cycle, similar to a gas turbine the steam plant operates in a conventional Rankine cycle (11). [Pg.411]

The Rankine cycle diagram placed adjacent the Brayton cycle in Figure 9-15 is indicated as a simple steam cycle with superheat, but no reheat and no multi-pressure steam generation. The thermodynamic advantage of the Rankine bottoming cycle is the lowered temperature of heat rejection, in the steam condenser, from the overall combined cycles. [Pg.259]

Determine the mass rate flow of air through the Brayton cycle, and the thermodynamic efficiency and net power output of the Brayton/ Rankine combined plant. Plot the sensitivity diagram of r] (cycle efficiency) versus pn (pressure at state 11). [Pg.254]
